Jets fly over for the George Bush funeral
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
They probably rehearsed the flyovers, so that all would maintain their proper alignment. That’s a lot of planning. I’m happy it all worked out as a tribute.
I love the flyover but no one seems to have caught the plane that goes off into the blue.
Thank you that video was perfect
I hope none of them came within 1,000 feet of a a gun free school zone with their cannons.
Boy the clouds were perfect for him to disappear into them.
Really precision flying especially considering these were not the Blue Angels.
Wow, perfect. I dont know what it is about watching that formation but it always fills me with an incredible joy.
On the local TV coverage I only saw 16 aircraft. They also said the weather prevented the lost man routine.
I thought all 21 would fly in formation. 4 jets at a time didn’t seem that special to me.
That was anti climatic- I thought it was supposed to be a 21 plane flyover all at once. I only counted 17 planes
Hell- I was more impressed with Soviet fighters practicing bombing runs on us in the Sea of Okhotsk. That new stuff isnt loud enough either
I am sure people will find this disrespectful. But Ive been wondering how they can keep dragging his dead body around for all these days and not think we were tired of it. Thank God he is finally buried.
It on this link after 1:00
There were 21 planes. The lead plane, 4 sets of 4, then after a pause, the final formation of 4 which did the missing man routine.
I watched on NBC. They screwed it up. What else should I have expected. Sorry lot that they are.
Thank you.
There was a time gap between the front 17 & the last 4. The “Missing Man” maneuver was done with the last 4. I saw it all.
